SHIQURDU 17

  • Shiqurdu is a collection of thoughts. Although an odd sounding name, but felt appropriate for the collection.

 

  • These are simplified quotes in Hurdu (Hurdu being a mix of Hindi and Urdu akin to Hinglish i.e., hindi and english). Although in some cases the language has been simplified but attempt has been made to retain the thought and the poetic flavor.

 

  • These thoughts have been picked up from various publications. Credit goes to all the original writers who penned down these deep meaning messages.

तू जिंदगी को जी,

उसे समझने की कोशिश ना कर।

चलते वक़्त के साथ तू भी चल, वक्त को

बदलने की कोशिश न कर..

 

99

सवाल सी ज़िन्दगी हैं, जवाब नहीं कोई…

शोर तो बहोत हैं, पर आवाज नहीं कोई

 

100

मुकद्दर की किताब

साँसे गिनती की

और..

ख्वाहिशें बेहिसाब

 

101

भविष्य सिर्फ हाथों की लकीरों में दर्ज़ नहीं होता

नसीब तो उनका भी होता है जिनका हाथ नहीं होता

 

102

दिल से फैसला करो

दिमाग तरकीब निकाल लेगा

 

103

जिसकी कदर करो वह वक़्त नहीं देता

जिसको वक़्त दो वह कदर नहीं करता

 

104

मेरे सजदों की इबादत

हाथ उठा कर सबकी जिंदगी मांगी

सर झुका कर सबकी ख़ुशी मांगी

 

105

कुछ कह गए, कुछ सह गए,

कुछ कहते कहते रह गए,

इस छुपने छुपाने के खेल में,

जाने कितने रिश्ते डह गए,

Those Close air combat days with gun tactics.

 I miss those wild air combat sorties – throwing the aircraft around.

Puzzle solving: SUDOKU

Interesting one called KROPI

Rules: All pairs of touching squares which contain consecutive values (such as 2 & 3 or 6 & 7) are marked with a white circle. Also, all pairs of touching squares which contain values where one number is exactly twice the value of the other (such as 2 & 4, or 4 & 8) are marked with a black circle.

Read an article in The Telegraph about migrant workers.

“URBAN NOMADS”

Is the term that came to the mind.

तू जिंदगी को जी,

उसे समझने की कोशिश ना कर।

 

कुछ बाते रब पर छोड़ दे, सब कुछ खुद

सुलझाने की कोशिश न कर….!

Leadership Series: Emotional Intelligence / Emotional Quotient
